Rachel, a writing student in Los Angeles, finds her life disrupted when she receives news of her grandmothers passing. At the encouragement of a trusted professor, she goes home to process the familys trauma through her writing. Her return has both healing and painful revelations: a romantic rekindling with an old love interest and, most notably, the challenge of helping her brother as he struggles with issues of mental health and addiction.
My review · Reviewed 07/28/2022
This indie drama has a strong start: a college girl comes home for the death of her grandmother only to find that her family is a mess. As the story starts to unfold the dialog really falls off of a cliff and the director makes use of an extended music bed (presumably to keep the viewers from falling asleep). The story itself is actually pretty good the delivery leaves a lot to be desired.
